> Finally, I present an engine I created to keep a track record for cryptocurrency influencers and beyond, starting with a Twitter account called Crypto Predictions Tracker

Good.

This is a great way to expose and make those fake influencers and idiots like this one [0] with second hand crystal balls held accountable and there will be no way for them to back out of their predictions or deny / change them at the last minute.

Great project.

This is pretty cool, do you use an out the box charting library?

Thanks! I use Google Charts + manual CSS-based overlays, ran via google-chrome --headless, triggered by the Golang binary that runs the cron that evolves predictions. I'm going to write a blogpost about the architecture, because I think it's an interesting one worth sharing.

You’re claiming 100x returns. So who’s preying?

Just to clarify, this refers to a paragraph where I claim that many see BTC/ETH as the fastest viable way to multiply your savings.

I do not offer any kind of paid services to make money at all! I'm just an engineer sharing a pet project, which doesn't involve money at all, yours or mine.
